Learning Is More Than Listening
Learning involves more than the completion of coursework. Some have said, “The day you get a degree, it’s obsolete.” This is true for almost every college, university, or professional training center.

How Does the Internship Work?
After the AHG Certification Program Coursework (Curriculum) has been completed, the final Module is training for our AHG Internship on the Helpline. This allows students to gain hands-on experience by responding to families in urgent need while supported by mentors and animal hospice care practitioners. Completing the Internship ensures your certification is more than bookwork. The internship will help you gain confidence and competence. You'll be able to ask mentors questions, refine your skills, and be a source of comfort for families by serving on our online Animal Hospice Helpline.
Mentoring
Makes A Difference
Once you know what to do, it's vital you learn how to do it. The first time you begin to use your training with a caregiver and animal companion, having a mentor available will build your confidence. Our goal is to unleash your potential, so you can become certified and be ready to go. Long term, we want you equipped to give back by mentoring others from your own experience.

“Caregiving in the face of the impending loss of a loved one is a tremendous challenge, offering the possibility of cherished memories that last a lifetime. Compassionate and knowledgeable support helps make these possibilities a reality. Offering such compassionate and knowledgeable support can be tremendously rewarding for the person providing support, for a profound win-win experience.”
– Dr. Amir Shanan DVM, AHG Founder
